As the title says, I am going to service my rear disc brake caliper and it wont come away from the disc. Does this mean that the rear wheel has...
Thanks for the reply. Do scooters tend to drift wider on bends than bikes. I know I can drag the back brake for control but I take it I can’t...
Hi, I’ve ridden motorbikes for years of varying styles and sizes but my current deauville is becoming old and cranky so I have now got my first...
Sounds good, always start with a larger jet and work down. Too rich will run poorly but is safe for the engine short term whereas running lean...
If the throttle cable enters the top of the carb and pulls the slide up by its cable then that’s a mechanical carb and easier to rejet. I would...
If you do take my advice then get it running smoothly on stock and the biggest gains in performance will then be in your clutch and variator....
In my opinion leave the stock filter on. The quantity of air required for a 70cc is highly unlikely to be too little with the stock. Have you got...
Can anyone tell me if the Peugeot geopolis 250 suspension and transmission parts are the same as the satelis? Geopolis parts are cheaper to buy so...
Every day's a school day, makes sense
Will do, thanks. I'll fit an extender then check the sag. The shocks were bought a while back for a 250cc motorbike project but never added. I am...

Engine lights tend to go out after 2-3 seconds. ABS light can stay on for several seconds longer. As long as it goes out after a short while...
Hi, I need to replace both fork seals on my Peugeot satelis 250 but can't find any obvious sellers. Can anyone tell me where I can get some or...
Thanks but a sooty endcan suggests it’s rich? The bike starts and runs better with no filter at all, with the air box it bogs at higher speeds and...
My deauville has a fuel pump but also a fuel tap. Is it a vacuum fuel pump or electric? Perhaps the vacuum is poor or if electric then maybe an...
Hi, thanks for the various opinions. I actually found a Suzuki gn250 bike in perfect order for a steal, stripped it down and did a brat bike...
As mentioned check the fuel tap. If it's manual then is it turned to the on position? If vacuum fed then check the pipes are fitted the right way...
I am fixing a wk zs125 for my lad and have a couple of carb questions. I have no manual for the bike. It has a Keihin cv carb but struggles to...
The longer shocks couldn’t be fitted due to rear pillion peg hangers encroaching into the swing arm range. Temporarily added 1 1/2 inch extenders...
